The victim has been identified as Mohamed Sakib (19), son of Mohammed Bashir, a resident of Amblamogaru.

Kochi, Mar 2: The Vatican has rejected the second appeal by Sister Lucy Kalappura -- one of the nuns who protested against rape accused Bishop Franco Mulakkal -- against her expulsion from Franciscan Clarist Congregation (FCC).
In her plea, she had demanded that her version be heard and her expulsion from FCC revoked.
She was expelled from FCC for participating in public protests demanding the arrest of Franco Mulakkal in the nun rape case.
''I got a letter from Vatican which says my appeal has been rejected. But the rest of the letter is written in the Latin language. So after I understand it, I will respond," Sister Lucy told news agency.
''The authorities are contemptuous of those who make such complaints. That is why the letter is written in Latin. Sister Lucy would continue her legal fight in the courts,'' said George Moolechalil, who has been authorised by Sister Lucy to communicate with the media on her behalf.
A petition of Sister Lucy is still pending at Mananthavady Munsif Court at Wayanad that demands that she should not be expelled from the convent where she is staying.
Religious issues should be resolved within the guidelines of devine laws.
Unfortunately the Chrisitianity is no more in its originality.
The holy bible has been systematically abused and edited to the benefits of rulers.
The book has been contaminated with lots of editions.
People should search for truth and follow it.
Example, the religion never told to remain unmarried for priests or nuns.
They go against its teaching inveting their own idea against God's teaching.
Vatican is a corporate person.
Feb 28: The Supreme Court on Friday granted more time to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to file a counter affidavit on a petition filed by Karnataka BJP leader and mining baron Gali Janardhana Reddy seeking permanent relaxation on his bail condition to allow him to visit Karnataka's Bellari and Kadapa in Andhra Pradesh.
A bench of Justices Arun Mishra and Indira Banerjee listed the matter for further hearing on March 16 after the CBI sought more time to do file the counter affidavit.
Earlier, the apex court had issued a notice to the CBI and sought its response on the plea.
Last year, the Court had allowed Reddy to visit the Ballari district for a period of two weeks to meet his father-in-law, who the petitioner claimed had suffered a stroke and also allowed him to move a bail modification application seeking permanent relaxation of his bail condition.
In January 2015, the Supreme Court had granted bail to Reddy in an illegal mining case involving Obulapuram Mining Company (OMC) on the condition that he will not visit any of the mining zones in Karnataka or Andhra Pradesh.
By the time he was granted bail, Reddy had already spent over three years in prison.
Reddy and his brother-in-law BV Srinivas Reddy, who was the Managing Director of OMC, were arrested by the CBI on September 5, 2011.
